Turbulent Times Chapter 1572: Seize the black air outlet

Zhang Tiangang walked up the avenue with a telescope in one hand and a sword in the other. At this time, the two thousand soldiers of the Li family army escorting the food and grass had already begun to organize resistance, but before they could make a move, there was a puff puff puff puff During the attack, each of the 1,000 fast crossbow soldiers of the Special Forces fired once, and nearly half of the 2,000 Tubo soldiers died.

Then he ordered another siege, and most of the remaining soldiers of the Li family army were easily killed. In the end, more than a hundred people who were still alive were scared to pee, and directly knelt down and surrendered under the leadership of a captain. up.

The more than 2,000 ordinary people escorting food and grass all huddled up on the ground and knelt on the ground.

Zhang Tiangang looked down at the two people lying at his feet. The two people seemed to be a father and son. Their four black eyes looked at him motionlessly, showing fear and expectation. Many people in the place have similar expressions and eyes.

That's right, apart from fear, these people actually have expectations.

"Commander, they must die, otherwise our whereabouts will be leaked." A councilor whispered to Tian Gangtian.

Zhang Tiangang glanced at the more than 2,000 civilians who were surrounded and huddled together, patted the councilor on the shoulder, and said: "I think you have to learn the discipline rules of my Far East Army. There are clear rules in the rules. It stipulates that our Far East Army never kills such unarmed civilians."

Don't mention that the counselor's face changed, and Zhang Tiangang continued to order: "Organize them, continue to **** the food and grass, and when they get to the place, let them help us build the fortifications, and give instructions to the people below, yes These people are better, as long as they don’t resist and are obedient, let them eat and don’t kill them at will.”

Listening to what Zhang Tiangang said, the uncles and nephews at his feet looked ecstatic. At this moment, the middle-aged man really believed that the life of the people under the Far Eastern Army was different from that of people in other places.

Zhang Tiangang did not kill the more than one hundred soldiers who surrendered. The captain who took the lead in surrendering was named Huang Sifeng. He didn't kill him, let him continue to be responsible for organizing the two thousand people to **** food and grass, and by the way, let the more than one hundred surrendered soldiers be responsible for carrying the small catapult accessories and guns and crossbows carried by their special forces all the way.

After marching for more than 20 miles in a hurry, when Zhang Tiangang ordered the special forces to take a short rest, several councilors in charge of reconnaissance and several reconnaissance team leaders gathered around a wooden pier, bending over and facing the map, arousing tension What are you talking about.

When Zhang Tiangang walked past, everyone stood up and greeted Zhang Tiangang. Zhang Tiangang glanced at the wooden pier, on which there was a map spread out, and a helmet with a paper foot on it.

"Whose helmet is this? According to the marching and combat regulations, it is not allowed to take off the helmet at this time."

"It's mine, Grand Commander." A councilor who was born in a nobleman of Fanyang County and graduated from Fanyang College first agreed, and then pointed to the back of his head. He had a pencil in his ear: "Commander, the humble position is just for convenience."

"The pen can be held in your hand, but the helmet is not allowed to be taken off." Zhang Tiangang criticized with a serious face.

"Yes, Commander." The councilor picked up his own from the wooden pier

Put on the helmet, then take off the compass box hanging on the chest from the neck, press it under the map, then pick up the monocular telescope leaning against the tree root, use it Hold down the left side of the map.

After completing these tasks, the councilor pointed to the piece of paper with a pencil, which was the route they had just determined on the map: "Commander, according to the information provided by the captives and the scouts, According to the information, we are located between Chencang County and Longguan, about a hundred miles to the west and southeast is Chencang City, and about a hundred miles to the northwest along the mountain road is Longguan."

"Very good, this time you have been able to keep marching correctly all the time, and you guys have contributed a lot." Zhang Tiangang nodded and praised sincerely.

Before, they were traveling through the dense forest. Although there were people from the reconnaissance team leading the way, they still mainly relied on a few reconnaissance councilors to keep the direction through the map, and there was almost no mistake with the target route. Marching in this era is not easy.

Of course, another reason for being able to do this is that the map drawn by Nie Xiaoyu has no errors at all. You must know that all maps in this era have a lot of errors. great advantage.

After a short rest, Zhang Tiangang gave an order, and the special forces started marching again.

……

……

"Commander, there is a mountain ridge seven miles ahead, which is Heifengkou, the target point No. 2. There is a stream flowing horizontally in front and behind, so the front and back of this ridge is an open land. Although it is not very big. But it just accommodates our 3,000 troops." During the march, a leader of the reconnaissance team of the advance team that had been dispatched in advance hurried back to report to Zhang Tiangang.

Zhang Tiangang was overjoyed, the journey has reached the destination very smoothly, and the plan has been carried out very smoothly so far.

He immediately ordered everyone to speed up: "Although we killed all the soldiers escorting food and grass during the day, and although we forcibly led the two thousand people on the road, no one escaped, but they failed to reach them. The planned location is likely to have been alerted, not afraid of accidents, just in case, and this black wind must be in the hands of our army, otherwise our strategic goals will be difficult to achieve."

The order was passed on, and the first and second units of the Special Forces each had 1,000 people and began to run and march in silence again. Only 1,000 people from the third team were left behind to drive the people to push forward the food and grass trucks, and some people wanted to push the accessories of the small catapult machine, carry light guns and crossbows, and carry boxes for explosives and grenades. Their speed cannot be increased, but they are also moving forward at the maximum speed.

The captain named Huang Sifeng who surrendered commanded more than a hundred soldiers and organized more than two thousand civilians to push a grain truck to follow him. Wu Zhifei asked: "General, is this location important?"

"Very important." Wu Zhifei didn't behave badly just because Huang Sifeng was a captive who surrendered. He participated in the first phase of training at Fanyang Military Academy and has professional training in this area. He has seen this map before: "There are relatively narrow roads on both sides of this ridge. Only here can deploy troops. This kind of place where you can attack and retreat is the combat regulations of our Far East Army

It is repeatedly emphasized that it must be won. This is also the "favorable location" in "the right time, place and people". "

"Oh." Huang Sifeng replied simply, although he still didn't understand why, he just felt that the Far Eastern Army was really a cowhide.

Wang Junlin has always wanted to build all the troops of the Far East Army into a professional army, so his requirement for each unit of each battalion under his command is to be as professional as possible. implemented by the regulations.

"The enemy is found in front! It's behind the mountain." At the same time, when the two thousand special forces soldiers in front were less than two miles away from Heifengkou, the No. The army also rushed from the direction of Longguan to Heifengkou.

"How many enemy soldiers are there? How far away?" Zhang Tiangang suddenly asked nervously.

If the opponent preemptively occupied the Heifengkou, then they could only attack the enemy army in a horizontal formation from the road in a column. Although this is not impossible, it may increase the difficulty of the attack and lose a lot of manpower for no reason.

"There are nearly 2,000 people rushing towards Heifengkou from the opposite road. I can't see the exact number, and it is a little more than two miles away from Heifengkou."

"The whole army marches quickly." Zhang Tiangang roared, and he led his personal troops to gallop up first. The soldiers of the special operations team wore helmets and weapons, and the whole army ran forward quickly.

When Wu Zhifei, the captain of the third unit of the Special Forces, rushed to the destination panting with food and grass, more than two thousand civilians, small trebuchets, and accessories for guns and crossbows, one thousand people arrived in front It has already spread out behind the mountain, forming a horizontal team, and another thousand soldiers of the second team are sitting on the ground, taking a final rest before the battle.

They brought fifty small crossbows this time, and now they have carried the parts of thirty small crossbows to the ridges on both sides, and began to assemble small crossbows and deploy small crossbow positions.

The third detachment, more than 2,000 civilians, and more than 100 captives had no time to rest, so they moved and assembled other parts of the trebuchet according to the counselor's instructions sent by Zhang Tiangang, and then deployed the trebuchet company position .

"It was really hit by the commander-in-chief. These enemy troops should be a stronghold for hoarding food and grass in a military camp set up by the other party in front. The food and grass team that we killed during the day did not arrive on time, so they came here Let’s take a look at it.” The first team leader Shi Tiefeng walked down the ridge, put away the binoculars leisurely, and said to Zhang Tiangang.

Zhang Tiangang said with a smile: "Their marching speed is too slow. But I don't know how many people there are. Our army doesn't need to go close to the opposite forest, we just need to hold this ridge. Also, if their number is small, Don't rush to expose all our troops, so as not to scare them away."

Shi Tiefeng, the captain of the first division, said solemnly: "Don't worry, commander, as long as my first division is fighting the enemy in this terrain, the general will have confidence in how many enemies will come and die."

At this time, it was mid-afternoon, and the vision was already clear. More than 2,000 civilians and more than 100 captives stood behind, discussing the situation ahead nervously and curiously.
